The much-anticipated August 21, 2017 total eclipse of the sun – with the sun being completely blocked out by passage of the moon – will be initially visible in Oregon and continue across North America to South Carolina. This will be a spectacular sight, but caution should be taken to not damage your sight. There is only one safe way to look directly at the sun, whether during an eclipse or not and that is with special-purpose solar filters.
